▪ Attract many attendees who would have not joined an in-person event
▪ Too many video presentations wrt live presentations (47/30)− Audience less engaged (Q&As)
− Not much follow-up as in in-person event
▪ Webex experience− Video quality sometimes a bit poor
− Audio quality usually OK
− Q&A sessions difficult to handle
− Video of Presenters/session chairs → does not make it engaging
▪ Whova experience− Overall OK not many difficulties to join sessions except for some few people
− Some improvements to suggest Whova team
− Very rich interface
Allow create networking (by regions or topics)
Messaging is nice
